Distance from the Earth: 1.687 billion miles (3.3 billion km)
PLANET MEASUREMENTS
Mass:8.68*1025kg
Volume: 6833*1010 kg^3
ORBIT AND ROTATION
Number of days to orbit around the sun:84 Earth years (30660 days)
Perihelion (how close does it get to the sun?): 2.74*109 km
Equatorial Circumference: 159,354.1km
Mean density: 1.27g

Length of one day (number of hours in one day?): 1709 Earth hours
Planet appearance: It is a colorful planet with many different shades of green and blue.It is "knocked" on its side and has many rings.It is a gasues planet.
Rings: URANUS has 11 with rocks about 10m wide.It has colors of white, green, and blue.
WATER
What forms of water are found on your planet?: frozen water is the only presence of water on URANUS
EXPLORATION
The only human exploration was the Voyager in January 24 of 1986
HABITABILITY
What would happen to a human if they tried to travel to URANUS is that they wouldn't be able to even land because the surface is made of gas.
FUTURE HUMAN TRAVEL
problem: Takes many years to travel there.
solution: Sending a robot or a rover.
TERRAFORMING
Very advanced life supports such as: air tanks, high powered suits that withstand different amounts of pressure and, jet packs.
COOL FACTS
Matthew would weigh 79.5 lbs, Michael would weigh 91.4 lbs
